We are very pleased to add a new amenity to Sound Racer for 2010: membership privileges to the Pine Island Beach Club. We were told this was a first-come first-served opportunity offered to a limited number of
Currituck Club homeowners, and after reviewing the descriptive material and talking with Village Realty and the Pine Island management we thought it would be a great addition.
The Beach Club is located just north of the Hampton Inn along Route 12. See aerial map below; the Club parking lot is to the north, the Pine Island Diner lot is to the south. The Club offers access to the relatively uncrowded Pine Island beaches, and a lot more. The facility includes:
- Oceanfront pool
- Children’s pool
- Supervised children’s activities
- Picnic tables and umbrellas
- Direct access to private beach
- Large dune deck
- Free parking
- Bike rack
- Showers and restroom facilities
We thought this would add an excellent option for enjoying the beach. While the
Currituck Club trolley is very convenient -- it picks up
right in front of
Sound Racer -- and we enjoy the Currituck Club's beach access area, the Pine Island facility offers a large pool as well as convenient parking. As a family, we know that there are times when having a car nearby is very helpful -- whether for supplies or a quick run to Harris Teeter. Having a pool nearby adds options for family members who want a break from the salt water. The Pine Island Diner is next door, and there are restrooms at the Club.
Credentials for the Club will be included in each guest's check-in packet beginning June 13. We're excited to try out the Pine Island Club when we next visit the beach. If you get a chance and would like to share your experiences, please comment on this post.
